An architect built a model of a 220-foot tall building that he is designing. The model is 25 inches tall and 10 inches wide. How wide is the actual building? ( I know this is easy but im just checking)

Question

Well you can find the scale of the model by dividing the real height with the model's height. Then multiply that by the model's width.

So that is your scale. It means that every inch of the model represents 8.8 feet in real life.

wolfe8 · Answer

What you did was divide the real height with the model's height. Like I said in my first comment, that is the scale. And I listed what to do next.
